Sanders supporters protesting at Trump rallies
People - myself included - complain about the media attention Trump gets compared to the lack of attention Bernie Sanders gets. Sanders draws huge crowds, and the media seemingly turns a blind eye.
But don't all these Sanders supporters protesting at Trump rallies just encourage the media to keep the focus on Trump? That's the headline of the day every time Trump has a rally - protesters clash with Trump supporters. Seems counter-intuitive to me. |
Seems like Trump will find a way to make himself the headline story regardless of what happens - might as well be people protesting him, I guess.

Trump is such an unconventional opponent who cannot be fought using typical politician mudslinging and thinktank old media, because it only bolsters him when he manages to defend himself or have his (quite frankly brilliant) spokeswoman do so.
Media will focus on Trump no matter the third party involved. I firmly believe it has nothing to do with anything else but media's own incredulity that this business man who was the star of his own reality television show, who has dared to say off-color things from the beginning of his campaign, has gained momentum and popularity the way he has today, and continues to, regardless of whether or not his popularity is due to the consequence of media obsession. Hell, even CNN, what people ignorantly consider to be the "unbiased" news channel between far-liberal MSNBC and conservative monopoly Fox, pretty much validated and lionized the unshaven trash that rushed Trump for his podium. If that were Hillary, he'd be done for. Media is rallying behind anyone to make Trump look bad, even if Trump is quite literally the victim in this case. |
Trump has been making himself look bad since day one and yet he's this popular. I just really don't get it.

They'd be better off rallying in support of the candidate they do like, or at least having counter demonstrations nearby instead of interrupting his rallies. |

There once was a resident in the Big Brother second season, who told every other resident he will outright lie to them and betray them in the show, and he did; week after week his teammates got back-stabbed yet they continued to trust him, until he eventually won the show... But in most cases, this tactic falls short when it comes to the end, most of such players didn't won their games. Trump might have the most genius campaign, using strategies he developed from reality shows; The reason he is popular is the same reason people watch and like those characters. |

You do realize Trump has nearly as many failed business pursuits as he does successes? Do you know how many bankrupcties the man has had? Throwing large sums of cash at something and hoping it will go away or work itself out isn't fixing the problem. And besides, when/if he gets into a seat of power then looking at his track record do you really think he'll just start throwing his own money around hoping to fix things and shut everyone up? Most likely not. If he is elected it'll just be four more years of backtracking on nearly every front, but at least he won't have any credibility going in for a second term.

Right, because all those billionaire businesses have done a great job of making sure their wealth is at least donated to the federal reserve to pay some of the debt off (which, by the way, strengthens the value of the dollar). Bang up job, billionaires, we now have no more national de.....-oh, wait. |

He takes advantage of business code to get further ahead in the game, which shows that he understands just how to work the economy for his benefit. But, I believe he and other corporations have had to dig their way around to optimize their profits because it's just not as profitable to retain all sectors of business within the U.S., which in turn hurts our employment. If someone knows how to work the economy for their benefit, they certainly can do it for the benefit of others like them, encouraging production in the States, upping our GDP, increasing availability of domestic jobs, and then there is economic growth all around. I believe you have to start from the top and work your way down when it comes to the economy. Target those private companies who garner their great revenues to invest back into their country. If big corporations can set precedents, so can the aspiring entrepreneur, and so can the workers below, all the way down to the entry-level employee. |

I feel that this video shows how much these protesters who are against Trump's supporters are getting out of hand. I mean sure, Trump would make a terrible president and anything coming from his mouth was insulting to anyone with critical thinking, but to have his enemies calling him a "white male" as a major reason not to vote for him is hypocritical (Sanders is a white male too).

Trump and his supporters suffer from a delusional victim complex, where protests against him and his vile rhetoric only serve to strengthen his support because in their eyes, it validates the victim complex they have, that people are out to silence them, when in actuality it's a self-fullfiling delusion. It's psycho.
It's about as insane as suggesting Trump is the one who's going to "fix" our economy when he has personally profitited off manipulating the bankruptcy and Chapter 11 codes to weasel his way out of debt, in addition to his oodles of failed business ventures and shady use of migrant labor. He's a farce on the economy, just like he is with the rest of his policy stances. |
